Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national general secretary N. Lokesh met various sections of the society, especially Backward Classes (BCs) and groups of artisans during his Yuva Galam padayatra in Gannavaram Assembly constituency on August 21 (Monday).
Mr. Lokesh said that the corporations formed by the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government for almost all the BCs were of no avail as those entities were not provided with the funds needed to extend financial assistance to those classes.
The TDP, if voted to power in 2024 elections, would take the necessary steps to put an end to the suffering of the BCs, he said, while pointing out that several welfare schemes for the BCs were introduced during the tenure of the TDP and the party saw to it that the targeted sections had received the benefits.
